Newsted - Heavy Metal Music - promo cover pic - 2013

5 Out Of 5 METAL Fists!

Metalfistredbckgrndsmall5

NEWSTEDJason Newsted has more than proven there is a life after Metallica; one listen into Heavy Metal Music only accentuates my point! Jason Newsted plays his powerhouse bass and is also the lead vocalist for his band. Heavy Metal Music was produced by Jason Newsted; proving here that he does not need to spend 100 million dollars on a Rick Rubin to make this album kick 100% Heavy Metal ass!

I confidently declare Heavy Metal Music as one of the very best of Metal albums I’ve enjoyed in 2013; and enjoyed in the past several years for that matter! I also dig very, very much the vocals of Jason Newsted. His vocals are Metal. Hell, Jason Newsted can freaking sing! The band that Jason Newsted has assembled here are tremendous musicians, in my most sincere Metal opinion. Newsted’s Metal is not Thrash, yet has that hint in a few spots. This is American Heavy Metal 2013, minus the modern Metal template that too many bands are following these days.

Listen To And Watch Below, The Sensational, Official Lyric Video For: Above All

Guitarists Mike Mushok and Jessie Farnsworth are damn amazing to listen to; Heavy Metal Music is a riff fest and their guitar tones are original and old school, not the vomit we hear from so many younger copy cat bands. Jesus Mendez, Jr. on drums just kills it! No instrument is buried here, the Metal from this album is in your face! All eleven songs are prime cuts with NO artificial flavorings!

Jason Newsted and his band have to be fucking proud of themselves! This is an album that our Metal community needs and is a potent drop kick to the ass to those who think Metallica’s Death Magnetic was something special. Here’s to one of Heavy Metal’s greatest bassists that has ever lived… and to an album that YOU should not be living without! This album has made me a very, very happy Metalhead. Listen To Metal. Metal be thy name.

Diecember Fest - 2013 - promo flyer - tyrants blood

Life Against Death have announced that they will once again be playing Diecember Fest in Vancouver BC.

An annual event, Diecember Fest is a two-day blast of some of Vancouver’s finest Metal band’s including such local favorites as Archspire, Tyrants Blood and Burning Ghats. In addition if you bring non-perishable food items to donate to the food bank, you will receive a gift in return! Tickets are $15 per night at the door or $20 if purchased in advance.

Life Against Death’s front woman Twitchy Twitch said about the fest, “I fucking love Diecember Fest! It’s Vancouver’s greatest display of Metal acts and promoters. It’s nuts, I am always sore the next day (which is a measurement of how good it was) it’s killer music, killer people and with the food drive it’s even a killer way to give back to the community.”
